I was very shocked to hear the news of Paul’s recent passing as he was absolutely at the peak of his powers - which included his love of distance running. Paul and I joined Experian within a few months of each other over 10 years ago and worked closely within the UK business before he moved to the US. During that period he convinced me of the benefits of marathon running so that I ran my first London Marathon in 2000. Since then I have run the London Marathon many times.  As Paul was training to run in this year’s London Marathon I was delighted to volunteer to take his place and to raise money for Muscular Dystrophy – his family’s chosen charity.
